          With the big boys about knock heads in training camp, the Oakland Raiders mixed it up, doing some juicy boy-band trolling.

          Tuesday night, at Arrowhead Stadium, Styles, the star of mega-popular One Direction, played to the Chiefs-loving crowd when he said no one supports the Raiders.

          The Raiders quickly got whiff of the Styles’ pop-off and responded with a late Tuesday night Twitter scud.

          Of course, Liam Payne, is Styles’ bandmate.

          Score an early touchdown for Oakland. As of Wednesday morning, the Raiders’ bomb was retweeted nearly 7,000 times. Styles and Payne have a combined Twitter audience of more than 45 million.
